Guys,
I have a chance to pick up either an 85-86 3 Color Sunburst, or and 86 or 87 Candy Apple Red, both are about $900.00US dollars. Would any of you fellows know what body wood(s) they were using on the LEFTY 62 Teles back then? If it is Basswood, I think I might just skip these and get one of the new Fender Japan Classic 60s Tele, because I am sure that they have an Alder body. I have a mid 80s Strat (LEFTY '68 re-issue), and it's a great guitar....with an Alder body.
Thank you very much for your time, gentleman.
Your pal,
Tiommy
